Brexit, for once some facts.

[50Hertz]

If as now appears the intention is to have GE in December, with a new UK Parliament taking office A fortnight before the potential new expiration date ,the WAB will fall. This means that in all likelihood a further extension will be sought. Two weeks in December ,which includes the Christmas break, will be a very inadequate time to pass major legislation. Under that model the current Parliament will cease to do business about a week from now. So how is a Deal or no Deal going to be expedited?.

Yes it is.
Imbolc or Imbolg, also called Brigid's Day, is a Gaelic traditional festival marking the beginning of spring. It is held on 1 February, or about halfway between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. Historically, it was widely observed throughout Ireland, Scotland and the Isle of Man. Wikipedia..

.and just in case you whimper, we are a proud and ancient people and have precedence. We had our clock working at Newgrange ..just down the road 30 miles, a good 1000 years before you Britons got your act together in Stonehenge.

More unnecessary words, more errors. Spring begins during March in the real world and in Ireland too.

Blimey that was before we Scots invented trousers!

Oh dear oh dear!
Keith Vaz broke code of conduct by 'expressing a willingness to procure cocaine' and is suspended for 6 months and faces recall petition. No comment from Michael Gove yet.

Whatever next? or should that be Whoever?

READ the WIKI.. The Official start of Spring in Ireland is 1st February. It's what is in our primary school textbooks. Just give up!.

Something that seems a bit "iffy"
From Business insider
"Asked why Boris Johnson promised that the UK would leave this week under all circumstances, his spokesman replies that: "October 31 was a date that was set by the EU."

And this

That should ruin his chances!

We are talking about Spring, not some Leprechaun inspired Irish bull $hit. In the northern hemisphere, Spring begins in March, not February. End of discussion.

No. You offended me, I countered with facts.. Inconvenient Facts, but Facts. Man upl. Even Fingers has the grace to do that sometimes. Now as far as I am concerned, I will not respond .. although I will accept your apology.

You sound like Boris Johnson.
We will leave this with the conclusion that you are wrong again.

Indicate one point where I was inaccurate.

Happy to oblige, Donald's name is Tusk, not Trusk as you always report it.

This is a link to the 13 times you've typed the name as Trusk.

Fair enough thats a fair cop.

Boris couldn't quite find a ditch - next best thing?

12 Dec / Winter election I suspect will be low turnout esp if weather is chilly

 

[wheeler]

Blimey that was before we Scots invented trousers!

Aye, but we had breeks before that.

 

[oldgroaner]

So now we have a vote tomorrow on the date of the December GE
This should turn out interesting, and it allows Boris to prevent his WA from being scrutinised before the election

A program on channel 4 on the cost of an American Trade deal indicates it will cost us at £500 Million pounds a week
Wasted on American big Pharma drugs.
There should be a slogan about that somewhere along the lines

"Lets spend the £500 million a week on the NHS and staying in the EU instead."
We could recycle leaves bus

 

[oldgroaner]

This is what Boris intends

Just watched Channel 4 News, the interview screened was cut short before the remarks about a no deal outcome were made.
I wonder who ordered that to happen?

 

[Fingers]

It could be a joke, but let’s give him the benefit of the doubt and keep an open mind.

No, no. It’s no joke. I officially renounce Brexit.

On reflection I guess what finally swung it for me was the loss of a greater union. Every other point I made was and is valid.

But I love the United Kingdom. I love the United Kingdom more than leaving the EU. And I see this utter car crash of a deal can only end in one way.

The end of the Union.

 

[Fingers]

And if we do renounce Brexit we might win Eurovision next year.

That’s a deal breaker for me.
